I am selling a Columbia "61 Special." According to the serial number (H247895) it was manufactured in 1960. It is black and white, all original, in very good condition. This bike did not have a tank. Instead it has a funky dual headlight. Missing one pedal. I am asking $150, plus shipping. I am located near Boston.

I have an old Schwinn Bike that I am trying to figure out what type & year it is & also a value. The serial numbers are hard to read, they could be MB29919 or M829919? Not for sure. Could someone please help me out with this I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

According to the chart MB would indicate a bike built 12/66. You might check the picture files to help determine the model.
